A selection of tracks I wrote about in my Octoblog. Because when we as musicians think about networking, we should think about appreciation and support. And because my own music is created from many tiny samples of already existing music, I am naturally very interested in the fact that all this wonderful music flowing through the ether out there finds the light of attention.

i drifted in dreams 
but none that i had arrived in 
and in the search of who and for what is true 
was the discovery of beauty and chaos

[VM012] VARIOS ARTISTAS 2020 (Snippets) Support Compilation

"Ah, cassette #4-- a split release by two very dear NYC friends whom I've known for years via my involvement with the International Winners Collective. Each side is a single piece of music, each being distinctly different.

Side A is a solo piece for grand piano by Gabe Raines' Suncastle project. Historically, Gabe's work involves immersive, sitting performances centered around sublime drones with trance-inducing visuals and lights. It came as a much-welcomed surprise when I went to see Gabe perform at the Park Church Co-Op in the Winter of 2019. He enlisted the help of a large orchestra/ensemble for a performance of two new works. The piece on this tape, "Tonal Rainstorm", was the first of the two-- serene and percussive, with a very dynamic trajectory."

After a short holiday break we are happy to share the next Rubber Tijd with you. We warmly welcome our first artist of the year and number 81 on the show: Eddie Peake. 

For this podcast Peake presents Memory Cycle 2, an audio piece from a series of sound works he has been making in recent years.

“They are an attempt to recreate as definitive recordings the live DJ sets I play in my performance work. Whereas in my performances they are ephemeral and reactive, here they are somewhat more calculated, although in both instances, chance and coincidence is important. They are collages of looping motifs drawn from a palette of original recordings, voice memos and field-recordings to evoke a sense of nostalgia, the subjective and inaccurate nature of memories, the repetitive and spiralling ideation of an obsessive or psychopathic mind.”

Eddie Peake is a London based Artist and DJ and his work includes performance, video, photography, painting, sculpture, sound and installation. It has tended to take the form of non-linear, immersive exhibitions, usually presented as a web of incongruously and yet inextricably connected discrete objects. Looping or repetitive forms are a prominent element, as is the theme of the inadequacy of verbal language in representing phenomena such as emotions, memories or modes of communication which are not verbal. Another of its foci is the implicit drama within relationships between people, whether they are familial, professional, romantic, sexual or social, and how desire, sexuality, socio-political and cultural constructs, as well as psychological states such as depression impact on them. Peake also DJs under a pseudonym and runs a record label imprint called Hymn.

We are very happy to have him on the team and hope you enjoy Memory Cycle 2.

Stay flexible!

Octobird is a Pro-Jockey, Discjuicer and Music Lover born and based in Berlin, Germany. Someone who’s not necessarily looking for yet unknown sounds in electronic music rather than putting already archived sounds of a long-forgotten future into a new context. Trying to blur your brain’s reception of connotation and curiosity.

Working with sound fragments from old vinyl recordings and films is certainly not a completely new approach, but Octobird archieved to develop his own language from this heritage of Hip Hop and House Music. Strongly modulated microsamples, a handful of drum computers and hardware synths, and jams as raw as possible glue his musical output together.
